Browns make four roster moves

The Cleveland Browns made four roster moves including placing one the reserve/COVID-19 list while activating three others.

Three members of the Cleveland Browns have been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list. Jacob Phillips, Austin Hooper, and JoJo Natson have been activated with Natson going to the practice squad. It was not all good news as Greg Newsome has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Cleveland was without all four players in their nail biter loss to the Raiders in Week 15. Newsome missed the game due to a concussion and now may miss an all too crucial game against the Packers in Week 16. The Browns getting Hooper and Phillips back with the possibility of Natson also returning helps their chances in a game that Green Bay is expected to win comfortably.
